Who doesn't adore Disney in all its forms? Children and adults alike. The brand is the epitome of fun, laughter and magic. When you are on holiday even if you don't have kids you can add a little Disney itinerary magic to your trip. Continue reading to find out what is available.
The first place to stop is obviously Disneyland, situated some 32 kilometres east of Paris. Unsurprisingly this is the most visited amusement park in Europe. It was opened to the public in 1992 and was aptly named Euro-Disney but this was changed. The park is easily accessible on Eurostar and there are lots of package options for transportation, hotel and resort tickets.
Once at the amusement park there are loads of things to do, restaurants and bars, as well as terrifying fun-fair rides, horse-drawn carriage rides, and different shows and spectaculars. All in a backdrop of favourite characters wandering around the park for meet and greet with the kids (and adults). It is almost obligatory to wear a hat or ears of some kind, and generally act like a kid. At the end of the day there is a parade down Main Street followed by a spectacular firework display. Everything really is there for a magical weekend.
The winter in the UK and Europe always brings a new Disney on Ice. Watch popular characters from favourite movies dance and sing to familiar tunes. Each show has a theme, and following the film success this year was Frozen, with Olav the loveable snowman, Ana and Else dancing and singing to Do you Wanna Build a Snowman, and In the First Time in Forever. Although you are in an ice-rick you will soon be warmed by the nostalgia and magic that Disney is famous for.
Why not break up your day touring by stopping for lunch at the Disney Cafe, on the fourth floor at Harrods in Knightsbridge. The menu includes cream tea, cakes, ice-cream or as would be expected Mickey Mouse toasties. Even the decor is themed, with Mickey chairs and princesses on the wall. Remember it is Harrods so expensive but it is cute and a justifiable treat.
Still in central London, all of your little ones will want to visit the Disney store. Whilst there are lots of smaller stores throughout the UK and Europe the biggest one in Europe can be found in Oxford Street, just a small bus ride from Harrods. Here you can buy DVDs, costumes, plushies, watches, collectables; in fact if they can brand it and package it you will find it here. Whilst you shop you will have movie tunes playing and of course, the cast members (staff) are there to help ensure your experience is a fun (and expensive) one.
There is no better way of rounding off a Disney-esque weekend is to go to the movies to see their latest offering. Amidst much horror in 2009, Marvel Comics was bought by the organisation and fans were afraid the Marvel franchise would be made into sugary sweet characters. The first film to be produced based on Marvel is Hero 6, and is in the cinema now.
This is the first animated production to transpire from the 2009 buy-out of Marvel Comics, and it has been eagerly awaited. The animation is beautiful and the scenes are heart-warming between the lead character, Hiro, and Baymax and a perfect end to a perfect weekend.
